I spoke with my contact at Rhino Rack and he said that from the gutters of your 2013 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited up the Rhino Rack part # RRSG59 will add about 5-1/2 inches.

This rack has a weight capacity of 88 lbs. You will need to consult the owners manual of your Jeep to determine what is recommended in terms of roof capacity and be sure not to exceed this figure.

I spoke with Rhino-Rack and they informed me that from the top of the roof to the bottom of the crossbar is 2-1/2" and 3-3/4" from the top of the roof to the top of the crossbar with the Rhino-Rack SG Roof Rack for Rain Gutters part…

Answer 7

For a roof rack to be compatible on your 2020 Jeep Wrangler with Sky One-Touch Power Top, it can't be mounted on the top of the roof and it needs to be high enough for the folding roof to clear. What you need are tall gutter-mounted roof racks.…

Answer 9

Yes, you can if you use something like the Replacement Shank for Gen-Y Adjustable Ball Mount item #325-GH-304. This ball mount will not reduce your hitches capacity like adapters do. If you already have one and would like me to verify it will work…

I have a solution for you, but the Rhino Rack Track Mounted Roof Rack 54" #Y02-480B-NT that you were looking into is actually for roof tracks, not roof gutters. Also, the 54" crossbars are not the recommended setup according to Rhino-Rack.…
